Broadband is out

Our broadband got disconnected late last week! Our phone got disconnected a couple of weeks ago since we hadn't paid the phone bill, but the internet just kept on working! Except then on friday last week, our pay-as-you go power ran out. After I pressed the emergency credit button the internet didn't work.

What I think is happening is that since the modem was connected before our phone got disconnected, it just stayed connected even though the phone was disconnected. But when the power was cut, the modem wouldn't re-connect.

It's kinda good in a way, because it means that I have to find something else to do for the week off besides sitting on the internet. But I think we're going to pay the bill soon, and get it back on. As it's going to be pretty hard to do uni without the net.

Hit Counter


Well I now have a hit counter on my blog. So now I can see how many people are looking at my blog! You can find the counter down the bottom of the page. I also started the counter counting at 10 instead of 0 so that I feel better!

Emsemble Performance

Today our ensemble performed in class, and we played Michelle by The Beatles.  For those of you who don't already know, I am studying a class called Aural & Ensemble as an elective at uni.  For that we have to be able to listen to music, and write down the chords.  So Hard!  Plus, we also have to be part of an ensemble.
So we performed, and I think we did pretty well.  Stay tuned, as we have to do 2 external gigs in order to pass.

I finished my graphics assignment

I'm really excited, because I finished the first assignment for Computer Graphics & Animation! For the assignment, we were given a 2D drawing program, and we had to extend it's functionality. It was a really satifying feeling submitting it!
So now we have to start working on the 2nd assignment. For that we have to produce a 3D animation that lasts between 30 & 60 seconds. I still haven't worked out what I'm doing for it, so please leave some suggestions.

I can't believe that I have a blog

What is happening? I have a blog!! Even though I'm a bit of a geek at times, I was determined to never have a blog. Except I got sick of everybody else having one, and talking about it. So now I have a blog!!
